Hello IODroids,
There is a way thatyou can see the 'current active connections' of your mobile.
But the program will be running in your Windows not in you phone. How?
You need Wireshark program on your Pc before you start, (you can use other programs but i prefer Wireshark )
1- Make a network in your PC , name it and put a password (search on google how to do it).
2- Close all your windows programs.
3- Connect your phone to the network you made on your PC.
4- Start Wireshark and choose your Network adapter, you will see advanced current connections.
It's not easy, if you aren't professional user don't use it.

Hi every one,

Thx
After a lot of fiddling about and a great deal of searching on these forums, (which takes forever trying to figure out how other people have reffered to ones problem) Yes, Resco Explorer, there is a manual on their website which explains how to map network drive. But easier and free, internet explorer, in address bar type //your machine name and return.
This of course assumes you have set up a shared folder and guest usage on your pc. Aleternatively you can just bang your head on the keyboard for 2 days until you don't care anymore! Which was my first course of action.

Top tip but it does not seem to work on my Vario... that been said I wonder if you create a short cut if you can by pass IE altogether ?

i know its an obvious solution, but as you dont say you have done it already:
[*] Assuming you are ruinning winXP - run the network setup wizard and enable file & print sharing (and share a folder or 2)
[*] If not running XP, either use the XP wizard (if you have an XP CD or friend who has one) or manually setup wookgroup LAN, enable file & print sharing and share a folder
Oh, and make sure you dont have any firewalls getting in the way (windows XP inbuilt one "should" automatically open the file sharing when the network wizard is run)

... I think what it is that I have a VERY secure network / domain here ( Deal with IT security you see )... so if I remove security I'll bet it will work.. just not had time to try.

Hi forum,
I have a WiFi Connection in my office premisis & was womdering if I could create a VPN or a similar p2p connection between my laptop & my universal...
Any comments or ideas..
Thanx,
mOrph
yes you can
but not an activesync connection.
you basically have to get on the WIFI network (VPN not necessary unless you are external of the network and/or behind firewalls).
then its a question of what you want to do, the WIFI network gets you on to it using WEP or WPA SPK I think (we use WEP at home and work).
if you want to connect to your laptop, create a mapped drive then you can copy and paste backwards and forwards.
you can run terminal server to control your PC or connnect to a terminal server, or connect to SBS with administrator priverlidges.
The question is, if you connected, what do you want to do. You cannot activesync, but you might like to try streaming music or other bandwidth consuming activities...
ok
got your PM.
Question: If you created the connection using WIFI between your laptop and your PDA, what do you want to do/achieve?
PS morphosin
Please please please stop using "help guys" as your heading. Refer here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=4534
Particularly point 2.
This is at the beginning of every forum topic.
Hi
Answer:
Hi Simon... The reason i was wanting to connect my laptop & my ppc through Wifi is that i cannot activesync (like you already know).
I was thinking maybe i can have a data trasfer between the devices if nothing else.
Is that possible?
If not, what can the connection be used for?
Thanx buddy,
mOrph
Activesync cannt be done over WIFI, 2003 allowed it not WM2005.
You can share a folder on your PC, and thus place files in and out of that using WIFI. Generally though, I found it more efficient to use an SD card with a USB memory reader to transfer files, much quicker read/write. Usually I want to put pictures or videos back the other way anyway. some pc's and laptops come with memory card readers anyway.
ON your PC' find a folder, right mouse click and share it with a share name. Make sure you know the name of the machine, eg my computers name is TLA-DELL1 for work, and home is the name of my daughter. If you havent named your machine it will have some dodgy obscure pathetic name issued by the manufacturer. You can get this from system in control panel.
On your PDA, start your WIFI.
Using Resco explorer hopefully you have it, map a net work drive. You can try the standard file explorer, but I dont like it. Total commander can also do it. In the share address use:
\\computername\foldersharename
note the double backslash.
Enter usernames and passwords as appropriate.
Now, the pain in the arse bit.... do you have a firewall? This is where it can get tricky.
The other thing you can do is if you are running XP Pro (if not, I recommend it), you can also go into control panel > system on the tab called remote connection, you can tick a box that allows you to take control and use your machine on your PDA using Terminal Server. This allows you to access all the resources and facilities that your machine has as if you were sitting at the console, including the power and processing speed of your computer.
Only downside, the screen is much much smaller than your computer, so getting around it can be painful.
Once you have enabled your machine to allow the connection, its simply a matter of starting wifi, programs > terminal services, and enter the IP address or computer name of your laptop to connect to it, and it should open then a log on name for you to start using your machine.
A further feature, which I dont use and cannot advise how to, but read about it here, is to "stream" mp3's from your laptop to your PDA so you can play music on your PDA based upon music on your machine rather than having to copy it.
In relation to sending files to your computer, if all else fails, I ahve two extra email accounts on my PDA a hotmail account, a POP3 account, and if in times of need, a GMAIL account, all of which allow me to email particular files anywhere I want using any WIFI connection. I use this when all else fails.....
Hence my question, what did you want it for....
Dont worry mate, we'll get there... one day. We just have to challenge MS, and what is life without a challenge or 100 from MS.
I would like a program that can do the following:
The main purpose is that the program should be 100% automatic and will after a easy configuration be left alone and handle GPRS to be online whenever there are GSM/GPRS available.
* Create a connection (in system/connection) automaticly from a file or something.
* With the created connection above, the program should automaticly connect. From suspend mode and after a soft reset.
Anyone knows a good program that can do this or a great programmer that can supply features like the above (and more).
Best regards
Zomen
advise
1. use ConnMgrEstablish to establish GPRS connection
2. Create a hide window to received message when the connection status changing.
3. soft reboot issue: writting a service to these or config the target device to run your app at startup time.
4. active device on suspended state mode: try API CeSetUserNotification
Hi Zomen,
I think you will need to look at Connection Manager API. It handles all low level connections on the device, including GPRS. It can be found here -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...s/apippc/html/ppc_cnmn_connection_manager.asp
And here is an example -
http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/w-p/ce/pocketpc/article.php/c7355/
Cheers,
Dav
Thank you for the answers but how about using RAS to make the connection?
And remember that the purpose of the application is to work on a Mobile 5 device.
/Zomen
hi,
Hmm, I think it should be ok to work on Mobile 5, but I have only been using 4.21 so cant be sure. However, there is a helper sample which comes with Embedded Visual C++ 4. If you have EVC4 You can find it here -
C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\POCKET PC 2003\Samples\Mfc\Cmhelper
And there is further information here about the sample here -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...s/guide_ppc/html/ppc_about_cmhelpersample.asp
You can use the sample to build a GPRS connection exe which will handle GPRS connections for you. At least on 4.21, havent tried on Mobile 5.
Cheers
can you use wifi to send files like bluetooth or can u browse other wifi cable phones or pc file system or hard drive what can you do with two wifi fonez can you lyk ad hoc the 127.0.0.1 to share filez or something like that

I have tried accessing my networked PCs and it works if you use Resco Explorer. Couldn't get it to work with the standad File Explorer.
There is almost nothing you can do with two WiFi phones.
You can connect them with ad-hoc network but Windows Mobile does not have the server components for file sharing.
I use Total commander to access files on my PC and even controlled it with remote desktop.
I had no problem accessing shared files on network with the built in explorer but it worked a lot slower then TC. Some kind of delay in the protocol or something.
How The Heck Do U DO That ConnecTin Via Wifi
CAn U Explain How To Get Resco Explorer Or Total Commander Since I have Never You Used Wifi Before I Can Pick Up Wifi signals From Nokia Devuces All Over And at My School Theres Some Sort OF signal Coming From the Offices and my fone picks the up 3 diffrent ones but when i press connect nothing happens can You Tell Me how i can Connect it to access files on a pc when the 2.0GHZ Signal Is Unencrypted I Went To Resco Explorer But theres No Wifi Options anywhere and This One Company said its Creating a applications to allow file transfer via wifi checkHERE! i Dont Know how thats possible can u connect to lets say a psp or Nentendo DS Or Iphonw or any Wifi enabled Device. Whats The Difference Between wiMAX and wifi coz they both use 2.0ghz? Wha does WIFI Stand For It Cannot Be Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Tankz Yall

Wow thats a lot of questions!
Ok, in order:
1) Just because you see a WiFi signal does not mean you can connect to its source!
It could be another device (mobile / laptop / PC) that does not allow you to connect to it.
The network could be secure so you need a key.
The network could show as "unsecure" but use MAC (thats hardware address) filter so only authorized devices can connect to it.
2) If you managed to establish a connection, it does not mean you can access anything!
To transfer files from PC to Mobile using total commander you need the HD/partition/folder where the files reside to be shared and have the rights to access that share. (On windows PC you can right click a disk or folder and select 'file sharing'). Than you just access a network folder. In total commander for example, you click on the '\\' (top in the file list) then 'LAN', then enter a network path and password if needed.
To serf the internet the network you are connected to must be connected to the internet and allow computers on it access. You may need to manually enter gateway or proxy settings for that network.
3) I did not see any WiFi related tool in the link you provided. In any case it all depends on what software is on the device you are trying to connect to. If there is a server for sharing files (like on PC running win XP) than you can transfer files or you may need a special server program for that device.
4) WiFi stands for Wireless Fidelity - that means the connection is reliable and unlike with analog radio signal which you might here distorted if the reception is not good your data will get through correctly or not at all.
5) WiMax does not work on the same frequency range as WiFi and it is designed for much higher data transfer rates.
You can read all about it here.

That's called theft and illegal intrusion of a computer network. People go to prison for that.
Yes it is very much possible.
Hi guys,
I am extreamly happy to say that i have been able to share files from one windows mobile to another windows mobile that too at the speed of up 450kbps.
i had been trying to do this for atleast 2.5 months with no luck(u may check the related topics, nobody had a idea, Even using xda, google, bing, yahoo, altavista found that nobody has done it before...) but yesterday i made it to work the way i wanted to.
All you need to do is create a adhoc connection(e.g P2P) and download FTP server (Yes your mobile will act as a FTP server) and FTP client.
For FTP server download mochasoft and for FTP Client download resco.
**Once you install resco 2008, go to menu-->options-->addins--> then download ftp plugging(and it will make resco to work as a ftp client)
Mobile A
Start--->settings-->connections-->add new ->name it p2p-->select the option "this is a device-to-device connection(adhoc)...once it is done, turn on wifi on Mobile B it will detect this connections, connect to it.....Now two mobiles are connected with each other via wifi(Without router).....Till this point you can find it in google.
Now to share files open mocha soft on Mobile A(It will show that it is "online" with a specific IP address(Note down this ip address), Anonymous login will be on but preferabaly create a user name (File--->settings--> Add[*give it a read/write permission]) and the password.
Then decide for yourself what exactly you wanna share with the other mobile, in this example i am going to share my SD CARD. Go to file -->settings--> other--> and in the "Login Folder:" put in "\\storage card"
Once that's done open up resco ftp on Mobile B. Go to My ftp locations-->New ftp session--Give a name to ftp session (like abcd), In the host type in the ip address address that you noted down earlier--> let the port 21-->Login:ut in the username that you created-->Password: put in the password
and Hey there you go!!!, you will have the Sd Card of Mobile A and you will be working on it as if it is in your own
....Cont...
On mobile A moccha will notify you that a user has logged on to your server. You can use all FTP commands on mochasoft.
I downloaded the 700Mb movie which was stored in my frnds mobile while we were having beer and it got downloaded at the speed of 450kbps(it started off with 350kbps and was fluctuating from 380 to 450kbps), Just before doing this i tried to copy a 10mb file using bluetooth and resco showed the speed 20kbps........
So next time when you go out to meet your frnds you can transfer all their stuff at the lightning speed via WIFI file sharing......
Good Luck!!
How to browse the internet using Wi-Fi?
Hi,
I tried to do that using this solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3491777&postcount=2
but I failed! Maybe because this solution is for Vista and I use Windows 7 Ultimate
Is anyone here which succesfully done the connection of WM side with Windows 7 side using "Network plugin" installed on WM side (already included in Thaihugo ROMs). If anyone which do it please let us know how he do it as this is very important for our HTC Shift which don't have SD Card on WM.
Nobody is an Network Expert here?
haha
Make sure you have properly setup a share under Windows 7
Create a dedicated share, don't use the share wizard (in your explorer, go to options, and deselect the last one: use sharing wizard.
Also, all your accounts must have passwords. specially administrators ones.
If you cannot connect to your share using a network computer, it will not work with the WM side.
Hi Thaihugo
I really appreciate your reply and the great ROMs you released for all of us!
My HTC Shift run your Light ROM on WM side and Windows 7 Ultimate on Windows side. My internet connection is USIM 3G/HSDPA.
I followed exactly your suggestion and also deselected "use sharing wizard" but I still get a "Map drive error".
What I can see is that "USB Tools" works for me only with "Enable advanced network functionaly" deselected and once the WM side si connected with Windows 7 side through ActiveSync then the internet connection become unavailable. Once the USB Tool "cable" is disconnected the internet connection become available.
I have only one Administrator user on my Windows 7 and is password protected.
My Windows 7 Internet Connection is defined as "Home" internet connection.
My PC name was defined as genuine name "SHIFT" as on your first instructions.
When I enter \\shift and press Enter I can see folders "Users" and "HTC Shift" (shared by me) as Shared Folders!
I also look inside "Change advanced sharing settings" and "network discovery" is turned on.
And I stilll can't map the network drive and believe me that I lost hours trying everything and searching Google but nothing works...
If you have any other suggestion please let me know and I will try...
Thanks!
Create a share without any right (all users allowed, on share and on NTFS)
go to the file explorer on WM side. Select menu, then open path - new path
enter \\shift\yourshare
It should connect.
If not, go to the Windows 7 side, click on the start menu, and search for "local". You will have local policy settings.
go to local policy, security settings, then network security: LAN manager authentication level. Select "send LM and NTLM responses". Confirm, reboot your pc and retry. It should work.
Thaihugo, thank you again for your real help.
I followed exactly the steps you suggest me and still can't connect and I tried even with USB Tools connected to Windows 7 side (internet connection not available) and also without USB Tools (internet connection available).
As I told you when "USB Tools" is connected to Windows 7 side then the internet connection becomes unavailable (disconnected) and once the "USB Tools" is disconnected the internet connection becomes available on Windows 7 side (reconnected).
Also for me "USB Tools" works only if I disable "Enable advanced network functionality".
I also disabled my Firewall on Windows 7 but nothing works... there should be other settings for me?
Thanks!
Nope, you have all the keys. Did you make sure the policy is changed as instructed?
You MUST connect USBtools, and yes, 3G connection will not be available during this.
I suggest you retry all this steps. I've done it on my own shift using exactly the same configuration.
Thaihugo, thank you again for your support. I will confirm here every step completed and this should help on finding the issue I have:
1. "first, know the name of your shift. If you didn't change it it is SHIFT, otherwise type hostname in a command line in vista side."
Done! My Windows 7 computer name was changed to: SHIFT
2. "then type services.msc and make sure the server service is started and set up to automatic if you want it to start every boot"
Done!
3. "Now type \\shift in your start menu. A windows must open, and you should see thinks, like Users,and printers. If not, don't worry, you can still go on. For more advanced users, it can be a good time to set up a share."
Done! I can see "Users" and "HTC Shift" folder. "HTC Shift" folder was created by me on partition D: (I have partition C: with Windows 7 only and D: for anything else) and set as shared folder with read/write/execute options for all users "Everyone".
4. "Now go on Snapvue side, and go to settings-connections-network plugin. First click on the "enable network folder" and wait for the reset."
Done!
5. "Now, when reset is done, start usbtools to activate activesync. On vista side, make sure you are connected ( set up a partnership, or just click on connect whitout partneship. In this case, you will have to do it each time.)"
Done! I choose "connect whitout partneship".
6. "Go back on Snapvue, and in network plugin click on New...
In remote path, enter \\shift\users if shift is your computername, and if you saw Users in the window on the second step. Otherwise, you can enter \\shift\c$ to access the whole drive. Click on map drive. Enter your username and your password (the one you use to login in vista)"
Done! I tried with \\shift\users and also with \\shift\htc shift or with \\shift\c$ and after some little time I get the same error "Map Drive failed".
7. "Make sure you have properly setup a share under Windows 7
Create a dedicated share, don't use the share wizard (in your explorer, go to options, and deselect the last one: use sharing wizard."
Done! I created "D:\HTC Shift" folder then right click on it Properties - Sharing - Advanced Sharing , I selected "Share this folder" then click on "Permissions" and I have "Group or user names" set for "Everyone" and at "Permissions for Everyone" I have "Full COntrol" , "Change" and "Read" all selected!
8. "Also, all your accounts must have passwords. specially administrators ones."
Done! I have only one Administrator account named "Admin" and have password.
9. "Create a share without any right (all users allowed, on share and on NTFS)
go to the file explorer on WM side. Select menu, then open path - new path
enter \\shift\yourshare
It should connect.
Done! but still don't have the connection...
10. "If not, go to the Windows 7 side, click on the start menu, and search for "local". You will have local policy settings. go to local policy, security settings, then network security: LAN manager authentication level. Select "send LM and NTLM responses". Confirm, reboot your pc and retry. It should work."
Done! but still don't have the connection...
Don't know where is the issue but there should be something else which made the difference between my configuration and yours...
Concentrate on trying point 9, and on checking point 10. Maybe you have something else blocking up. I would suggest trying with another computer, and maybe if you can another pocket pc on the same wifi network.
I'm sorry I cannot help you further. Have you other devices available for diagnostics?
BTW: I have my phone off, no sim card
My phone is turned ON and I have sim card inside as the internet connection come from my sim card (3G/HSDPA). My WiFi is turned OFF and Bluetooth ON (bluetooth mouse Microsoft 5000 on it).
Other devices I have is other HTC Shift where I have the same issue and my notebook with Windows XP Pro.
try turning phone off and remove your sim card (just to be sure). Also, please try to connect from your XP computer.
